The Whiskey Geeks

'If you only knew the power of the Dark Side' - Darth Vader : Empire Strikes Back This week, our heroes fully embrace the Dark Side and dive into Bruichladdich's Octomore 6.1 and 11.1. They talk about their history with this heavily peated whisky (1:30​), Star Wars Tales #9 Vader vs Maul (13:20​), other Darth Vader comic book stories you should read (31:00​), and finish with the best duels in cinematic history (35:30​) before they give out their ratings on the whisky and comic book (51:00​) Notes from Bruichladdich: Our Octomore single malts have defied received whisky wisdom since they were first distilled in 2002. Sometimes bottled bold and brazen at 5 years old, always super heavily peated and cask strength, every edition is a liquid embodiment of ‘The Impossible Equation’. Notes from Dark Horse: Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys and Girls! Droids and Jawas! Prepare yourselves for the battle of the century! In this corner, weighing in at 220 pounds, the terror from Tatooine, the Dark Lord of the Sith, the former Anakin Skywalker -- DARTH VADER! And in this corner, weighing in at 175 pounds, a killer of Jedi, the Naboo Annihilator, Darth Sidious' #1 apprentice -- DARTH MAUL!
